"Fishing Boats Off A Harbour; And Ship At Sea" is a notable work by Alfred Wallis, a British artist renowned for his distinctive and primitive style. Wallis, who was born in 1855 and passed away in 1942, began painting late in life, around the age of 70, after the death of his wife. His works are celebrated for their raw, untrained quality and their evocative depiction of maritime life, reflecting his own experiences as a fisherman and marine scrap merchant.

This particular piece, "Fishing Boats Off A Harbour; And Ship At Sea," exemplifies Wallis's unique approach to art. He often painted on found materials, such as cardboard and old paper, using household paints. His choice of medium and his spontaneous, unrefined technique contribute to the charm and authenticity of his work. Wallis's paintings are characterized by their bold, simplified forms and a lack of perspective, which give them a childlike, yet deeply expressive quality.

The subject matter of "Fishing Boats Off A Harbour; And Ship At Sea" is typical of Wallis's oeuvre, focusing on the sea and maritime activities. The painting captures the essence of coastal life, with fishing boats depicted in a harbor setting and a ship navigating the open sea. Wallis's use of color is both practical and symbolic, often limited to a palette of blues, whites, and browns, which evoke the natural elements of the sea and sky.

Wallis's work gained recognition posthumously, largely due to the efforts of artists Ben Nicholson and Christopher Wood, who discovered him in St Ives, Cornwall, in the late 1920s. They were captivated by his work and helped to bring it to a wider audience. Today, Alfred Wallis is regarded as a significant figure in British art, and his works, including "Fishing Boats Off A Harbour; And Ship At Sea," are appreciated for their originality and emotional depth.
